The devs know exactly which Alexander bosses people dreaded for this Ultimate it seems.
.They make you think it's "just" Alexander and his mecha buddies you're dealing with...then they peace out and let Living Liquid come in to take the first jab at everyone. -

I don't know why...But this trailer just didn't excite me. Like...I actually have no interest in this and it makes me sad.
Not to mention a lot of what's shown probably won't even be released on the 29th and will be a half patch release. (5.11, 5.15, etc)
Not trying to be a negative nancy. Just kind of venting. -

I'm looking forward to Estinien's crazy dragoon jump, personally. lol
Also, glad G'raha is saying he wants to make sure he doesn't die, but I also am getting kinda more and more nervous every time the story mentions him possibly dying or what the consequences of his death would be... >_>
Anyway, wonder who he's revealing the truth of the source/shards/calamities to? Lyna? I somehow doubt the new fairy needs to be told and G'raha (and the others) seem to be pretty sure that the average person on the First is better off not knowing about them. I could see him telling Lyna since she's basically his family, and he really should tell her his origins at some point now that it doesn't have to be kept from her.
Also, G'raha back in trusts! Yay! Maybe he'll get added to the system now. lol
Yorha raid looks cool and looks like it might indeed be giving us more on the ancients. I'm guessing a different city-state than Amaurot, but maybe not.
More ShB story? I'm hype.
EDIT: Oh, right, also Ishgard rebuild yay! I... really should level a crafter to actually participate in that. >_> But still. -
10-19-2019, 01:58 AMTheodricUnfortunately the story is played very safe so we can safely bet that there's a high chance that everything will work out perfectly in the end.Quote:

Based on the live letter the only thing slated for 5.11 is the Restoration of Ishgard and 5.15 is the new PvP map. Aside from that the only other thing we can expect to be delayed reasonably is Ultimate, but that's because it is always with the x.x1 patch since SE doesn't want to make people feel rushed with the new story stuff. That's not to say other things won't be delayed, things happen and game development is not always an exact science.Quote:

I don't expect anything utterly groundbreaking to happen until 5.3. 5.1 and 5.2 will be laying the groundwork for the finale of Shadowbringers and then 5.4 and 5.5 will be build up for 6.0. There will be intriguing elements across the board but the payoff will take some time to manifest, especially since each patch moves the story forward by a bit then ends with a teaser. That's how I see it, at any rate.Quote:

Them worrying about people rushing shouldn't be a concern because most of the stuff that is released can be finished in a few hours. The story patches are usually only about an hour to 2 hour's worth of content. And raids can be finished within a few hours depending on the party. I feel like that's why they put weekly caps on stuff.Quote:

I know. I've been playing since 3.0...I know that this quiet or "Lull" period is a thing. It's been like 3 months since there was any meaty content. If we're talking 5.3 or 5.4 for any meaningful content, we're in trouble. lol.Quote:

There wasn't one part of that trailer I wasn't hyped about. I am ready to watch videos of people getting pummeled to death by Ultimate Faust. I'm ready to do WoL things. I am ready to play as Estinien (no one can convince me he isn't our next roleplay) and pummel Zenos in the teeth. Also I want any cool moves that Estinien shows to be on my drg. In fact, getting out my old Stormblood artifact gear and glamoring it on.
Also, I am ready to cry miserably at the Nier raid. Everyone catch the outfit of who 2b is fighting? Ya, I too, am ready to cry. -

It's 2P same model different character(hence different color) most likely she had the same mission as 2B and that is her version.

I doubt I'll see much, if anything, of ultimate because our static isn't really made for it but I'm looking forward to getting my ass handed by a new extreme. Escpecially first week when we have to play the mechanic guessing game :D
And everytime time something regarding G'raha Tia and his potential death gets mentioned, even if it's a "I won't throw my life away that easily" or something, it makes me nervous.
"My arm will not falter, my shield will not break" - I think we all remember how well THAT went for Brochefaunt.
Please don't kill G'raha off. Not now, not ever. Pretty please.
I can't wait for the story to continue, even if we're now in the calm before and after the storm. More Gaius and Estinien action yay! I really hope we can rp during one of those quests. It would be a huge missed opportunity if not. Crawling through Garlemald as grumpy jumpy? Where can I sign up? -

Okay but why is 2P white?

[* Note: the yelling was not addressed to you, please don't take it personal. It is just that I find outrageous the possibility SE writers might kill him to cause emotional burst. G'raha deserves a happy ending story.]
On topic, I'm very glad he returns to the Trust system. Now, if they made him a regular like the Scions that would be something.
All in all, it was about time the story moved forward, I'm quite curious to see how it unfolds. I'm also curious and interested in the new Alliance raid.
Extreme and Ultimate are not for me, so my very best wishes to those who enjoy them and will attempt to be the first to succeed. -
10-19-2019, 08:52 PMCrushnightThey could kill 1st G'raha but then awaken Source G'raha and sort of have a bittersweet ending with one G'raha dying(probably to save everyone) but give the knowledge the other G'raha will never have to go through what the 1st G'raha did.Quote:
